Description
- The invention relates to a polyurethane polymer-based aqueous dispersion and a method for preparing the same, a composition comprising the aqueous dispersion, use of the composition, and a coated article.
- In chemical industry, on the one hand, for the sustainable development of energy, it is desirable to replace unsustainable and non-renewable resources (for example, petroleum-derived materials) with sustainable and renewable materials; on the other hand, it is desirable to develop a method for converting carbon dioxide into available new materials so as to improve carbon efficiency and reduce carbon footprint.
- As an important raw material in the material industry, polyurethane polymers are widely used in the industries of insulators, foam and the like. An aqueous polyurethane dispersion formed by dispersing a polyurethane polymer in water is widely used in the industries of coatings, sealants, binders, printing inks and the like. Polymer polyols are one of the main raw materials for preparing polyurethane polymers, and presents about 60-90 wt% of all the raw materials. The currently available polymer polyols are mostly prepared from petroleum-derived raw materials. However, in order to save energy on the one hand and utilize carbon dioxide on the other hand, it is desirable in the industry to find a polymer polyol derived from a sustainable and renewable source, especially a carbon dioxide-derived polymer polyol to replace a petroleum-derived polymer polyol.
- However, when compared with a petroleum-derived polymer polyol, a polymer polyol derived from a sustainable and renewable source has changed physical and chemical properties, thus a polyurethane polymer prepared therefrom also has changed physical and chemical properties.
